Job description:

I am looking for a head chef for a small, privately owned and run, 20 bedroom hotel 35 miles to the West of Aberdeen near Aboyne.

Serving very good quality bar meals during the day and a la carte meals in the evening. Lots of the produce is sourced locally and is a good area for foraging during the right seasons. We also serve lots of game where possible.

Looking for a reliable head chef who can work with the owners to maintain the day to day running of the kitchen including stock control, health safety and hygiene, ordering and menu planning.

The chef will have full reign over the menu and the kitchen.

Would suit either a strong sous chef looking to step up or an experienced head chef looking for a better work-life balance as you will be finished by 9.30pm most evenings at the latest.

We are closed over Christmas every year.

This would suit a couple and there could be opportunities for more responsibility down the line in the form of a profit share or a lease. Open to discussions.

This position is available from the end of January as the establishment will re-open in February.
